Candidate

As I walk along this road paved with human kindness I can never forget the price you've paid I'm an actor on a role, an artificial virus I'm your daddy, I'm your disgrace I say, "Kid just move along we don't want it, don't need it Your politics just breed despair" I salute an empty flag of ancient tribalism and trust me nobody cares For I am your candidate I am bloody lips and makeup I'm your caliphate, opioids and mutilation A celebrity and my name is competition I've come to bear your pain (bear your pain) and I can make it go away I'll make it go away, I'll make it go away (ay, ay, ay) Believers, dupes and clowns I want you all to gather 'round To glorify ignorance and fear I dispense misinformation to a post-truth generation, my darlings don't shed a tear For I am your candidate I am bloody lips and makeup I'm your caliphate, opioids and mutilation An hermaphrodite in restrooms and service stations I truly feel your pain (feel your pain) and I can make it go away I'll make it go away, I'll make it go away --- Candidate - Bad Religion
